Shanita and her son Brent are great people! When you look at this property, you realize that you are in a great home compared to the rest of the area.
The property has some great pluses:
- There is a lot of peace and quiet here. Love waking up to the breeze and watching the cows.
- Large home with plenty of room for guests
- Love the wrap around porch and chairs
- Beautiful wood floors inside
- 5 gallons of drinking water are provided
-The home has all cooking items needed along with some spices
- The shower had wonderful hot water although a little low on pressure compared to the US.
A few needs:
- It would really benefit from some screens in the sliding glass doors. There are one set of sliders with a screen and others were without. There are some really adorable cats, but they have fleas and I didn't want to have them get inside (trying to be considerate to the owners). So we had to close the sliding glass doors when weren't paying attention which cut down on the breeze into the home significantly. You will however get your cat and dog fix while you're here. They are adorable!
- The AC in the bedroom might need some freon. It was really hot when we were there (I think unseasonably so.) as it got up to 105. For the most part, the bedroom was 84-86 degrees when we went to bed, one night it was up to 91 degrees. So the AC worked some, maybe a 15 degree cooling. There was a fan in the room that helped. I've had portable AC before that worked much better, so this one might just need a tune up. I almost think it would have been cooler to sleep outside a few of the nights. So maybe just turn the AC off and open the bedroom windows if it's really hot. I'm not sure how someone could sleep upstairs comfortably when it is warm outside.
- FYI - Washer and dryer aren't on premises. It's $5 a load which seems to be the going rate in the country. We ended up just skipping it as we were busy with everything anyways.
- Dishwasher is missing the bottom rack so I just hand washed our dishes.
There's a great pizza/wing place in Belmopan: Pasquale's Pizza & Ultimate Wingz and a great ice cream shop named the Ice Cream Corner. Check out both!

Shanita is a great host! She lives nearby on the premises and was a very helpful resource when we were looking for guides to take us on various excursions in the area. We are a family of 6 and there was a lot of space for us to spread out, plus a huge deck. The house is really out in the countryside and farther to get there than you think by the directions given, and the last part of the road is gravel and full of potholes, but we did fine in our rented minivan! It is centrally located if you want to visit the Mayan ruins and the Mayan caves (not to be missed!!). But be aware that the house is not air conditioned except for a stand-alone unit in the master bedroom. We were here in the summer when it was very warm and sticky, so it would have been nice to have it throughout the house.

We had an amazing time with Shanita and her family. They were extremely welcoming and the house was perfect for our large family. We had nine of us sleeping comfortably. The house was set on a hill on the edge of the jungle. Our kids played with their animals, picked coconuts and went on a hike through the jungle. I can't recommend this place enough. If you want to stay off the "beaten path" and enjoy your time in Belize, stay with Shanita and her sweet family!!!
